[PATCH] hw/tpm: TIS on sysbus: Remove unsupport ppi command line option
Posted by Stefan Berger 10 months ago
The ppi command line option for the TIS device on sysbus never worked
and caused an immediate segfault. Remove support for it since it also
needs support in the firmware and needs testing inside the VM.

Reproducer with the ppi=on option passed:

qemu-system-aarch64 \
   -machine virt,gic-version=3 \
   -m 4G  \
   -nographic -no-acpi \
   -chardev socket,id=chrtpm,path=/tmp/mytpm1/swtpm-sock \
   -tpmdev emulator,id=tpm0,chardev=chrtpm \
   -device tpm-tis-device,tpmdev=tpm0,ppi=on
[...]
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

Do you need to add a VMSTATE_UNUSED_TEST in case a future QEMU version
introduces a new field in the same position which will cause an issue
when restoring from an older version?

Hm, you got a point there. We will have to error-out in case someone sets ppi=on instead since the expectation that PPI would work is simply not there. v2 coming soon.

as Joelle pointed it out ppi_enabled is not part of
vmstate_tpm_tis_sysbus fields. And since it has never worked I suspect
we cannot have any existing VM enabling it. So I don't get the issue
with this 1st version?

Thanks

You are right. I repeated my test with restoring state of a VM taken before the removal of this field and it restored it. So that other patch is good and I am withdrawing this patch here.

Actually, ignore that last message. I misread the patch thinking it's
on the VMState.
